its in the side of the thermostat on mine (1.6) fan switch is in the rad and looks totally different. coolant will come out when you change it

The one on the thermostat is for the engine coolant temp (if it is on the thermostat, iirc it is). The one on the side of the rad is a thermoswitch that is for automatically turning your fan on. The sensor for the MFD temp display, outside temp, is behind the front bumper, can't mind what side

Side of the rad is the fan switch, temp sensor is on the thermostat I think

Somewhere in the rad, cant remember exactly. One is temp sensor and one is fan switch.

Yep that'll be the problem m8 and when you replace it for god sake dont overtighten it because its a tapered thread
